Hey. In the video at the 12 sec point my 93 1hz out of a coaster bus does a burp. I’m not sure what or where this pressure is being released and why it is happening.
Today we timed the injection pump. 1.09
Compression is all about 375 psi
I am in Ecuador and they don’t know too much about...
Hello. Putting a 1hz on a fj80 frame that had an 1fz on it. The sway bar is very close to the oil pan and I’m not sure that there is enough clearance. I’ll post some pictures
Options I have thought of so far
Different oil pan?
Modified oil pan?
Modify sway bar?
Aftermarket sway bar?

Sorry didn’t find this in the faq. I have a fj80 that I’m using the chasis and putting a 45 body on it. Oh and I’m taking the 1fz out and putting a 1 hz in it. Lots of stuff I know.
So I have found wire diagrams but the color codes they use is for example black with red stripe. B-R. The...

Between my manifolds there was a sandwich of gaskets (3). One gasket had a shield of some sort in the center of it. Pictures below. I looked for that gasket with the shield and didn’t find it. Do I need it? Also do I need a sandwich of gaskets in there? How many should I put?
The door on the...
Putting a 82 4speed 2f from a fj60 into my 71 3 speed Fj40. Could use some driveshaft for this.
Could also be interested in a 74-80 Fj40 4 speed bell house so I can use the original mounts to install
Thanks

I’m in Colombia at the moment trying to buy a 45. It has a running 14b in it. I’m going to restore it before I ship it to the states where I’ll use it for overlanding trips.
Would you keep the original 14b with 5 speeds or spend some more to put a 2.8 Cummins in it?
Mpg is important but...
Hello.
IM trying to bring a truck from Colombia to the states. Anyone have experience with this company? Any recommendations for me in starting this process?
What’s on the front of your truck?
If or when I get stuck I go for the usual, the shovel, 4 low, snatch strap, even maxtraxs. But if I’m really not moving some people are happy they have the warn winch on the front to get them out. Not me. When I’m that stuck it’s “grill time”. I go to the...
I bought these tires 2 weeks ago and have had 3 flats since. It’s my first tire with tubes and wanted to see if I’m missing something that is causing these flats.
I’m driving on dirt road in Patagonia at the moment. Not to fast. The flats seem to come from no where. There are loose large...

My question is (...
